I don't grow food. I grow soil. Honestly, you could probably fix 1/3 of the nations issues - weather, flood, food quality, health, and a few others... by rebuilding soil. I think with an approach like this you could significantly improve 1-2% of the nation's growing soils per…

Long story short- We are in this uncomfortable demographic position where there are 1.2 million old guys over the age of 65 driving down returns because we have a stagnant boomer driven ag policy in the US. Oh, and we're about unleash $10 billion more into the ag economy.

There are layers to getting this right and few are putting them all together. It may even surprise you guys to know that grass fed meat has a huge spread in nutrient density. It isn't all the same. Thread time 🧵

Yes but, I think I can raise meat that is off the charts nutritionally from everything else on the market

I don't think most non-ag people realize that a huge percentage of full-time farmers/ranchers live almost entirely on borrowed money throughout the year. They take out an operating line of credit that pays for living expenses. Interest accrues. Then they hope to have a crop to…

It goes hand in hand with regen ag. Younger generations look at land as a living being to steward, While older gens look at is as a tool to make money. Both gens can learn from each other, but one gen has 95% of the wealth. Thats how you get our current national soil situation

As I get older, it gets less surprising gen x and millennials are leading our nations Christian revival. You cannot serve two Gods, the pre & boomers seemed to have chosen money instead of Christ. Makes sense why we’re $38T in debt as a country led by them predominantly recently

Two decades ago, researchers started an experiment that would challenge the prevailing scientific understanding of plant communities. While modern agriculture treats diversity as inefficient, the Jena Experiment proved the opposite: complexity is the key to resilience.

If I had spent my $$$ on $BTC this fall instead of calves I would have been retired by Tuesday.



Went to college with @SantsPliego . Smart dude and hardworking. No surprise here that he's out there building culture.

The Vibe Shift in America is Underway 🇺🇸 I talked with @SantsPliego about the vibe shift, culture wars, backing companies defined by American ideals and positive national vision, DEI and ESG, bitcoin, and creating solutions. Full episode on X. This was a banger - enjoy :)

“we have raised enough grain this year to feed us and all our decedents for 100 years yet have to sell every bushel of it to pay expenses.” The above quote best illustrates the dilemma caused by government subsidies and money printing.

I'm working through American history writing about the forces that destroyed agrarianism. My third essay in the series spans the Civil War through the turn of the 20th cen. This one covers the governments use of subsidies as a tool that brought many western farmers to ruin.

First attempt at salami cotto and mortadella. Gotta stuff them a little tighter and dial in the emulsification of the mortadella but the flavor is on point. These lack the pink brightness once cooked since I don’t use nitrates.
